• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Halve bell peppers lengthwise; remove ribs and seeds. • Place bell peppers on a baking sheet and rub all over with a drizzle of oil. Season with salt and pepper, then arrange cut sides down. • Roast on top rack until browned and softened, 15-18 minutes.

• Meanwhile, in a small pot, combine rice, 3⁄4 cup water (1 1⁄2 cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

• While rice cooks, drain and rinse chickpeas. Peel and mince or grate garlic. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Zest and quarter lime. Open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid, or rinse shrimp* under cold water, then pat dry with paper towels. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken or shrimp in a single layer; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan.

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add bok choy and napa cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 1-2 minutes. • Stir in chickpeas, garlic, scallion whites, 2 tsp curry powder (4 tsp for 4 servings), and as many chili flakes as you’d like. (TIP: Use more curry powder if you like a stronger flavor!) Cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, 1 minute. Season with a big pinch of salt. Use pan used for chicken or shrimp here.

Cook until curry has thickened slightly, 4-6 minutes. TIP: If curry seems too thick, stir in splashes of water as needed. • Taste and season with salt and more lime juice if desired. Turn off heat; stir in lime zest to taste. Add chicken or shrimp to curry along with lime zest.

• Fluff rice with a fork. Stir rice into curry.
